Number of three players in Helldivers 2 after the update

Number of three players in Helldivers 2 after the update

Helldivers 2 was a massive force at launch. It has steadily declined over time and updates have degraded many players’ favorite gear. However, the game’s latest update has largely reversed the negative trend.

The latest update for Helldivers 2 lets players feel more powerful than ever before. The update brings reworked armor penetration systems, player health and protection, and more. After releasing a series of updates that received half-assed or negative reviews, it seems Arrowhead has hit the nail on the head with this one.

After peaking at around 23,000 concurrent players just before the update rolled out, the number skyrocketed to around 69,000 right after the game came back online. Something that illustrates how Arrowhead shot itself in the foot with the scales after launching in February.

With a bit of luck, the studio has managed to reverse the negative trend the game has seen over the past six months. The latest update has received a lot of positive reviews online, and this could be the beginning of a kind of second breath for Helldivers 2. If the studio can find a balance between a challenging game and over-the-top action that makes players feel truly powerful, Helldivers 2 could be a long-term success story.
